Highlight for the clan was late 1999. Won over many of the best uk clans in practises and reached all the way to the semifinals of the UKCL cup, beating long term rivals Denial [have to point out they had a depleted team at this stage, so skum and oppy won't beat me up] twice on the way. Unfortunately lost to TS in the semifinals in a really disappointing fashion, Thirdof5, Tanan and Atomic (probably our best three players) were all unable to make it. TS won DM2 but JAMS were leading on UKCLDM2 until Telly (I was using the up to that point ultra stable Thrustworld dialup to make sure I didn't have problems) and Grassman were disconnected while JAMS were still in the lead, costing them control of the map and allowing TS to get pent. To be fair TS also had a weakened team, and perhaps would have won even with both teams at their strongest as they had many strong players like Bigfoot, Cenobite and Salamander. But me and Cons still feel bitter about it to this day :).

History

The team at the start of the first season of the WPDML was Quadfather, Cons, Thirdof5, Telly, ThaKrow, Lightfoot, Pobster and Zardoz.

Bitter enemies of Edge Of Madness in the old wireplay days (all friends now).

Aliased as the Silly Turkish Balloonmen during the wireplay Shot To Bits crisis.

Went inactive a couple of times over the years but never really split up.

Thirdof5 was the original leader and then Telly took over mostly from 1999 onwards.

From 2000 we tried out various games, mostly with the same team. Played Quake3 in 2000, doing reasonably well and reached the top divisions of all the UK leagues. Nih was very good at Quake 3, and also the one who hated it with the most passion.

Tried out CPM TDM for a season but it was just free for all. Our team iirc was telly, grind, nih, cons, krass and acidicfish. We also played a 2v2 cpm tournament, with telly, acidicfish and cons playing, but can't remember how we did, except won at least one match.

Cons and Acidicfish preserved with quake 3 and started the clan Reverse Psychology, which telly and grind also played for a few times.

Played one season of a Counterstrike league. Telly (despite never playing CS once before the first match) thought it would be easy, but JAMS lost horribly in all the matches. Pobster, grind, telly, acidicfish and cons was the JAMS CS team.
